Forced to delete DSO

by Howard Dortch · in Torque 3D Professional · 09/04/2010 (1:32 pm) · 6 replies

In TGE if you made any changes to a cs file it got recompiled to dso. Apparently I have to manually delete any dso now if I make a change to a cs file. Can someone tell me where the script code is that checks for changes in cs/dso and automaticly recompile? Apparently I commented it out or changed it and can't remember where it is or which function it was.

I does not look up the timestamp properly. It dosent care if you have a correct .cs file or one with syntax errors, it dont recompile a new dso if theres one there.

I saw someone posting a fix for this but alas cant recall the url.

PS: Dont know if they fixed this in beta 2 or 3.

In thought dso's were now only compiled in a release build? In fact look in TorqueConfig.h for:
#define TORQUE_NO_DSO_GENERATION

You have to comment this out to generate dso's.

Look in ConsoleFunctions.cpp line 1979:
...(scriptModifiedTime - dsoModifiedTime) > Torque::Time(0)
I changed it to 
scriptModifiedTime <= dsoModifiedTime

This should solve your issue. I had the same problem. Took me some time to find it!

// Edit: Wasn't fixed in Beta 2
